Speaking about Greece, they have a budget of around 7.6 billion USD last year as compared to our 7.1 billion USD. Our defence budget is around 7.6 billion USD this year too. Interesting
Upgrade! Must upgrade!
Especially at the front of the turret, with some slope amour or reactive armour.
As long as they sharpen the base of the main gun.
The blunt front of the current A4 makes it look like WWII Tiger I.
My personal opinion la.
Waste of money for your country with little to spend. Saving lives is`nt a waste of money
Haha. I do enjoy everytime you jump in and try and dissuade Singapore from buying or upgrading something. Hurts doesnt it? Trouble is you look more and more like a clown each time. Do you really think anyone who matter will take you seriously? They will when pigs fly.
mmm dick, a lot of ah beng lives and have PR oversea...why you pick me. Do i have to ignore your ignorant mind, that im a singaporean or do i have to show you the singapore flag tatooed on my dick...then you belive me...
Phased upgrades for L2A4 in order. Top priority will be increased armor over front arc & perhaps an active protection system also. Newer ATGMs and 125 mm guns already present in the region - no probelm for these to penetrate L2A4 frontal armor based on already 25 year old tech.
No such thing as threat not existing - also cannot wait until it exists before you upgrade ; it will then be too late !
it's unveiled to throw attention off the new generation of gundams and valkyries they r developing...
haha, i agree w u:) new generation of gundamns and valkyries are exciting. Really. stay tuned!
1)If there is no existing threat, it is more cost-effective 2 use e $ in other more urgent areas.
2)Not all upgrades r publicized. Many add-on upgrades r already in existent but not publicized
It looks like a hybrid between C1 Ariete and Leo2A5.
Japan doesn't export their military hardware as far as I know so these are off limits to foreign nations.
Ya tat was e 1 of e law impose on Japan after WWII
impressive. the coax looks like it cld hide a .5 cal in it. wonder if the tank is capable of firing missiles through its main gun. hmmzz..

Sshhh !!!
Anyway, I stand corrected. Our military budget this year is 7.79 plus USD billion.
I agree with you. New generation ATGMs and projectiles will be a problem and we should expect our Leopards to evolve in tandem. Im just in love with the sloped armor of the 2A5 onwards.
Anyway, it is good that attention is on the Leopards rather than other stuffs.
Hope we buy more!!

that's why nobody's using the military equivalents of hondas and toyotas in tanks and warplanes ...
